Officially the Nike Kobe 6 Protro, the sneaker is a sequel to a beloved “Grinch” style the late Kobe Bryant debuted on Dec. 25th, 2010 during a Christmas-day showdown between the Los Angeles Lakers and Miami Heat. Bryant and team fell to LeBron James and company, but #24’s on-court footwear immediately sent viewers into a frenzy, stirring excitement for what would become widely considered as the best Christmas-related sneaker of all-time. The Kobe Bryant Estate – led by Vanessa Bryant – has worked with the Swoosh to reverse the iconic narrative for the thirteenth anniversary of the original Kobe 6 “Grinch.”

Kobe Bryant began to use the “Black Mamba” nickname in 2003. The moniker was inspired by Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill film of the same year, and allowed him to separate his personal life from his work on-the-court. In 2015, Bryant – then five-time NBA Champion – told Ahmad Rashad, “When I step on that court, I become that. I am that killer snake. I’m stone cold, man.”

Nike Basketball’s “Holiday 2010” collection tapped into Bryant’s alter-ego, as it would with future Nike Kobe product, drawing inspiration from the green mamba. Eric Avar’s design for Bryant’s signature sneaker line took full advantage of the reptilian concept, featuring a scale-textured upper. The design choice not only brought the alter-ego to sneaker form, but also provided performance benefits as it allowed the Kobe 6 to be lightweight but protected. A “Green Mamba” makeover of the sneaker made perfect sense, but its debut during Christmas 2010 naturally associated it with Dr. Seuss’ iconic Grinch character from 1957. Additionally, the “Green Apple” makeup was complemented by “Crimson” branding and laces, cementing the “Kobe Grinch” in the annals of holiday footwear.

The first Kobe Brand Performance Retro – or “Protro,” as Bryant himself coined it – launched in February 2018. Bryant retired from professional basketball two years earlier, and had been working with the Swoosh on the Kobe A.D. and other high-performance basketball sneakers for athletes of all levels and budgets. The shoe delivered a refreshed design in the aftermath of his 20-year basketball career. Akin to the Air Jordan line, however, the idea to retro signature hoops models arose, but #24 wanted to ensure his line of footwear continued to evolve to meet the modern needs of players.
